<blockquote class='quote\\_blockquote'><dl><dt>Quote:</dt><dd> </dd></dl><div>It's being reported that WWE aren't exactly pleased with how Sheamus is being received by the fans. It's no secret that WWE have struggled in getting Sheamus fully over with the fans and several boo's have been heard at recent events.

WWE are said to be unimpressed with Sheamus' connection and how he does get over. The Sheamus/Cesaro match was taken very well backstage, especially towards Cesaro and WWE are pushing the idea to Sheamus that if he cannot get the job done, there will be people who can take his place.[/quote]

Let's think about this one.

* They debut him on the ECW roster, during a time in which Mark Henry was literally the only guy to have ever been in a PPV main event (once).
* He becomes the number one contender to the WWE championship, having yet to feature in a single story line.
* He establishes himself by ending the career Jamie Noble (a cruiserweight who has been enhancement talent for most of his two WWE runs).
* He wins the title by beating Cena in a tables match... after outside interference.
* He has a rubbish 2 months as champion in which most of his matches ended in DQ. And most are against Orton.
* He loses the WWE Championship back to Cena, but his role in the match is overshadowed by Batista, who was not in the match.
* He jobs to Triple H at WM 26.
* He "injures" Triple H in a rushed story line.
* He "injures" Sin Cara (a cruiserweight who was in his first few months on the WWE roster).
* The story line in which he injured Cara is over-written by WWE revealing Cara's genuine suspension.
* Sheamus beats Cena, Orton and Edge to win the title... with outside interference from the entire Nexus.
* He spends 2 months as champion where most of his matches end in DQ, and are mainly against Orton.
* His ONE clean victory was an 8 second match against Zack Ryder, another cruiserweight enhancement talent.
* He loses the title to Orton, but the feud between Wade Barrett and John Cena overshadows his involvement in the match.
* He feuds with mid-carders John Morrison and Santino Marella, losing most of the time.
* He wins the King of the Ring in just 2 matches instead of 3, meaning that Morrison had an extra handicap.
* The new king jobs to Morrison.
* The new king literally runs away from opponents for the next few months.
* Like all KOTRs, he jobs to Triple H... on television.
* He wins the US title in very low profile match against Daniel Bryan.
* His WM 27 match is bumped off the card onto the pre-show. And then it is thrown out after 2 minutes.
* He loses the US title to the much smaller Kofi Kingston in a tables match.
* After several months of not doing anything important, he jobs to Mark Henry (who is not a main eventer yet).
* Despite having 3 finishing moves (later having 5), he only has one that seems to work; a bicycle kick.
* He starts winning more matches by taking on a more brawling style, using his feet and forearms primarily.
* He wins the Royal Rumble, and does nothing significant before WrestleMania 28. Meanwhile, the World Champion is buried repeatedly, nearly taking a PPV loss to enhancement talent Santino Marella.
* His WM28 match lasts 18 seconds.
* For the next several months, the majority of his matches are against Daniel Bryan and Alberto Del Rio. On most occasions, it is Orton picking up the win in a tag team match.

And they don't understand why Sheamus isn't over?

Though this was a fantastic post, you forgot to include the fact that he's about as exciting as a fence post.

He's a mid-carder, I don't care how high Trips is on him, they can't afford to make the mistakes with Sheamus as they did Cena.

No they can't. But they already have.

Nah, once it starts continuing for half a decade then they're fucked. I don't think anything has been damaged too much. Plus, Sheamus has a little credibility, now. He can help elevate other guys down the road.
